The File Operations section of Züs provides an in-depth look at how users can interact with their decentralized storage. Züs supports a variety of file management capabilities, ensuring secure, efficient, and fault-tolerant data operations within the ecosystem.
File operations on Züs include uploading, downloading, sharing, recovery, replication, and encryption, all of which are designed to work seamlessly within the decentralized storage architecture.
Züs provides several core file operation functionalities:
Züs allows users to securely upload and retrieve files from blobbers. The system ensures high availability by leveraging erasure coding and redundancy mechanisms. Read and write operations are optimized for performance and data integrity.
Users can share files either publicly or privately. Private sharing uses Proxy Re-Encryption, ensuring secure access without compromising encryption keys. AuthTickets are used for authentication and access control, making file sharing seamless and secure.
In the event of failed operations due to network inconsistencies, Züs provides repair and rollback mechanisms. These ensure that blobbers remain synchronized and that users do not experience data loss due to temporary failures.
Züs supports video and media streaming, using efficient chunk-based downloads and adaptive playback mechanisms. The system dynamically optimizes storage and retrieval to ensure smooth media access.
To maintain data integrity, Züs provides self-healing mechanisms where missing shards are automatically reconstructed and redistributed. Replication features allow for seamless data migration between servers.
Users can integrate Züs with S3-compatible tools, enabling cloud-based applications to interact with the storage network just like they would with traditional S3 cloud storage services.
Züs implements end-to-end encryption (E2EE), allowing users to encrypt files before upload, ensuring that even storage providers (blobbers) cannot access raw data. Compression features optimize storage efficiency.
